Definitions
- the invention refers to drive transmission chains, cooperating with chain sprockets.
- a link of the chain comprises a pair of parallel axes pins rigidly constrained to each other by outer pin connecting plates; the next link comprises a rigid so-called “block”, comprising two parallel axes bushings rigidly constrained to each other by bushing link plates, generally with the same pitch between them as the pins.
- the bushings of a block are pivotally mounted on pins of adjacent links.
- An idle roller can be carried on each bushing creating a type of chain defined as a roller chain. A portion of such a chain is illustrated in Figure 1 and indicated by reference numeral 1.
- each pin link is indicated with reference numeral 2 and each bushing link or “block” is indicated with reference numeral 3.
- a pin link comprises two plates 2 1 , 2 1 integral and rigid with parallel pins 2 2 , 2 2 .
- a bushing link comprises two plates 3 1 , 3 1 respectively rigid with parallel axes bushings 3 2 , 3 2 .
- Each bushing link 3 connects together two successive pin links and, vice versa, each pin link connects together two successive bushing links.
- This chain comprises a series of pin links and bushing links or blocks connected one to the other.
- the pin links 12 have pins 12 2 double the length of those of the chain in Figure 1 and rigidly constrained to each other at their ends by means of outer plates 12 1 , 12 1 and in an intermediate position by means of an intermediate plate 12 3 .
- the bushing links or "blocks" are conventional and are indicated with 3 as in the example in Figure 1; each comprises two plates 3 1 , 3 1 which rigidly constrain together two bushings 3 2 , 3 2 .
- Each pin link 12 is connected to the next one by means of two bushing links 3 located side by side on one side and the other of the intermediate plate 12 3 .
- An object of the present invention is to facilitate assembly of a chain drive of the type with offset rollers.
- a further object is to reduce the width of the chain drive.
- a further object is to reduce manufacturing costs.
- the new chain comprises pin links having pins offset by a pitch fraction on one side and the other of a central plate, said pin links being linked connected to each other by bushing links or "blocks" of the conventional type.
- the offset pin links comprise elements with two pins, comprising a central plate with which are integral two pins extending from opposite faces of the plate and offset one with respect to the other by one-half pitch or a fraction of a pitch.
- the chain comprises pin link elements which comprise a central plate from which four pins extend projecting alternately from one face and the other of the central plate, the pins on one face and the other being offset with respect to each other by half the pitch or by a fraction of the pitch.
- the new chain achieves the above mentioned objects, in particular it facilitates production and assembly and allows the size to be reduced transversally to the direction of travel of the chain.
- the chain 100 comprises pin links 102 and bushing links consisting of traditional "blocks" bearing reference numeral 3, similar to those described with reference to the prior art.
- Each link 102 is composed of four pins indicated respectively with 103, 104, 105 and 106, with parallel axes, disposed with their axes offset from each other by one-half pitch on one side and the other, whilst the pins on the same side have their axes offset by one pitch p.
- the offset pins are constrained together in pairs and form elements like that indicated by 110 in Figure 5, which provides pins 103 and 104 protruding from opposite sides of a central plate 112.
- the links are closed at their end by means of side or outer plates 114 like the one illustrated in Figure 7.
- a chain 100a of the invention is assembled from pin elements 120, each of which comprises a central plate 122 from which four pins 103, 104, 105 and 106 extend, arranged alternately and protruding from the opposite faces of the plate 122, two adjacent pins being offset by half a pitch and protruding from opposite faces of the plate, two pins on a single face are offset by a pitch.
- Conventional bushing links or block links 3 are assembled on the central or pin elements 120 thus described, and arranged so as to join the pins of adjacent elements 120, for example, in Figure 11, the pin 105 of an element 120 on the left with the pin 103 of element 120 on the right.
- the chain is then closed by application of outer plates 114 that connect two pins of each pin element, for example 104, 106 and/or 103, 105.
- the chain of the invention can be made up in two basic types: as a “bushing” chain (that is with the block links composed solely of bushing and inner bushing plates) and as a “roller” chain (with the addition of an idle roller on each bushing).
